NASA used to report when an astronaut got sick all the time
Is the media treating this like a crisis in space? I am sorry to see that one of
the new astronauts is ill, but it will go away in a day or two.
One of the Skylab crews kept space sickness at bay by spending their first
night docked to the space station inside their Apollo spacecraft, rather
than jump[ing into the cavernous station and bouncing around. Maybe
the Shuttle crew does not have such a luxury, or maybe there is nothing
much the astronaut could do in their situation.
